Micah 3:11-12
EasyEnglish Bible
11 You are the city's rulers, but you accept bribes.
Then you do not judge people in a fair way.
You priests teach people only if they pay you.[a]
You prophets speak about what will happen in future times.
But you only speak if you receive money.
But you still say that you trust the Lord.
You say, ‘The Lord is with us, so nothing bad will happen to us.’
12 Because of how you live, Zion will be like a field that a farmer has dug.
Jerusalem will become a heap of stones.
Trees will cover the hill where the temple is now.[b]
Micah 3:11-12
New International Version
11 Her leaders judge for a bribe,(A)
her priests teach for a price,(B)
and her prophets tell fortunes for money.(C)
Yet they look(D) for the Lord’s support and say,
“Is not the Lord among us?
No disaster will come upon us.”(E)
12 Therefore because of you,
Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,(F)
the temple(G) hill a mound overgrown with thickets.(H)
